Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a seaweed cage that has excellent durability, has suitable elasticity, and has good peelability of seaweed.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 A conventional example will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 showing the seaweed cage of the present invention.

In recent years, dry seaweed has been mass-produced through a process of paper making, dehydration, drying, and stripping by a fully automatic device. In the process, the seaweed cage 1 as shown in FIG. 1 is used as a means for mincing the grown algae and making it on a cage to form dry seaweed. The seaweed cage 1 is formed by knitting a plurality of straws 4, 4 ... In parallel with an appropriate number of knitting yarns 3, 3 ...

Usually, the season for seaweed is about 5 months from November to March of the following year, and the seaweed cage 1 used in the above-mentioned device is used for one season, and the seaweed cage 1 during the season is used. It can be used up to 500 times per sheet.

Since the hardness of seaweed varies depending on the number of times of plucking, the adhesion to the seaweed cage 1 is controlled by the size of the minced meat, etc., and as shown in FIG. It is designed to squeeze the back of the to peel off the seaweed.

[0006] Conventionally, the knitted yarn 3 that constitutes the seaweed litter 1 has been transferred from cotton yarn, which is a natural fiber, to synthetic fibers such as Tetron (see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 53-28291). Further, a mixed spinning of cotton fiber and synthetic fiber has been proposed (see Japanese Patent Application No. 61-36616).

[0007]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, regarding the knitting yarn, both of the above two proposals have the following problems.

On the other hand, the knitting yarn made of synthetic fiber is poor in peeling due to the small elongation of the yarn in the peeling process, and the damage such as cracking of seaweed and cracking increases. It was

On the other hand, the knitting yarn of the mixed yarn of the cotton yarn and the synthetic fiber solves the problem in the stripping process, but by using the natural fiber for the blending, it is possible to use the knitting yarn of only the synthetic fiber. Compared with this, the abrasion resistance of the peeling work using a mechanical roller is inferior. In addition, nori seaweed is preserved until the next season after the season ends (for about 7 months from April to October), but during this period, natural fiber sites are degraded by adhering bacteria, rot and cut. Is a problem.

The present invention compensates for these drawbacks, is excellent in wear resistance and durability, can be used for several seasons, and provides an elastic seaweed cage suitable for stripping seaweed. It is an object of the present invention to provide a seaweed cage that saves and reduces damage to seaweed.

[0011]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the seaweed cage of the present invention is a seaweed cage in which a plurality of straws are knitted with a knitted yarn, and the knitted yarn is a twisted yarn obtained by mixing highly shrinkable synthetic fibers and synthetic fibers. Characterize.

[0012]

[Action]

 According to the seaweed cage of the present invention, since no natural fiber is used, the durability can be secured without worrying about spoilage or deterioration of the seaweed cage due to adherent bacteria. Further, the problems of elasticity of the knitting yarn of synthetic fibers and peeling of seaweed can also be solved by using highly shrinkable synthetic fibers and mixing them with synthetic fibers.

Therefore, the seaweed can be used for a long period of time over several seasons, and the damage to the seaweed is reduced.

[0014]

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the seaweed cage 1 of the present invention is formed by parallelly knitting a plurality of ropes 4, 4 ... With an appropriate number of knitting yarns 3, 3. Further, in the present embodiment, the knitting yarn 3 is a twisted yarn obtained by mixing highly shrinkable vinylon fibers and synthetic fibers.

This highly shrinkable vinylon fiber is produced by the method proposed in Japanese Patent Application No. 58-108943. For example, a polycondensation polymer having a polymerization degree of 1200 to 3000 and a saponification degree of 9 8.0% mol or more is used. Wet spinning is performed using a vinyl alcohol aqueous solution. A mixture of the high shrinkage vinylon fiber and a synthetic fiber such as nylon, tetron, or polyester is twisted and used as a knitting yarn 3.

If the blend ratio of the highly shrinkable vinylon fiber and the synthetic fiber is, for example, 50% by weight of the highly shrinkable vinylon and 50% by weight of polyester, the knitting yarn 3 has both appropriate elasticity and durability. It becomes a thing.

Since the seaweed cage 1 of this embodiment is manufactured by using the knitted yarn 3 thus formed, it exhibits appropriate elasticity even in the stripping operation in the seaweed manufacturing process, and the roller 2 With this, the backside of the seaweed cage 1 is squeezed to reduce the damage to the seaweed when stripping the seaweed. Moreover, since natural fibers are not used, problems such as corrosion due to adherent bacteria and deterioration of natural fiber parts are reduced, and durability and abrasion resistance are greatly improved.

As the highly shrinkable synthetic fiber, any one that exhibits a high shrinkability may be used, and in addition to the highly shrinkable vinylon fiber of the above-mentioned example, a highly shrinkable Tetron fiber or the like may be used.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, but can be modified as necessary.

[0021]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, since the seaweed cage of the present invention is constructed and works, it has excellent wear resistance and durability, can be used for several seasons, and is suitable for stripping seaweed. By providing elastic seaweed cages, it is possible to reduce costs and reduce damage to seaweed.
